CLK Design Automation Acquires Synchronous DA.Brings Together Leading-Edge Timing, Clock Tree Synthesis and Optimization optimization Field of applied mathematics whose principles and methods are used to solve quantitative problems in disciplines including physics, biology, engineering, and economics. Solutions LITTLETON, Mass. -- CLK CLK Clock CLK Clerk CLK CDC2-Like Kinase CLK Corel RAVE (file extension) CLK Chep Lap Kok (Hong Kong airport) CLK Ceska Lekarska Komora (Chech) Design Automation today announced that is has acquired Synchronous Refers to events that are synchronized, or coordinated, in time. For example, the interval between transmitting A and B is the same as between B and C, and completing the current operation before the next one is started are considered synchronous operations. Contrast with asynchronous. Design Automation, an innovative developer of clock tree synthesis and optimization tools for advanced digital chip designs. Combined with the leading-edge timing and signal integrity capabilities offered by CLK Design Automation, the result is a comprehensive suite of automated au·to·mate v. au·to·mat·ed, au·to·mat·ing, au·to·mates v.tr. 1. To convert to automatic operation: automate a factory. 2. timing closure tools for 65-nanometer (nm) and 45-nm designs. The Synchronous Design Automation technology provides next-generation clock tree synthesis and post place-and-route optimization. Using its unique "intelligent clock scheduling" technology, the Synchronous DA tools can improve timing, reduce power, and increase tolerance to process variations. "Our Amber Analyzer analyzer /ana·ly·zer/ (an´ah-li?zer) 1. a Nicol prism attached to a polarizing apparatus which extinguishes the ray of light polarized by the polarizer. 2. has had an excellent reception in the market place. Chip designers are genuinely excited by the throughput and analysis improvements our threaded timing and signal integrity approach brings to the design flow," said Isadore Katz, president and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of CLK Design Automation. "Of course, the very next thing they requested was optimization. In their words, being able to analyze and identify timing problems 10x faster is fantastic. Now, can you help us fix them? With the addition of the Synchronous DA technology, we have a very compelling solution for advanced IC designs." "We had been getting a great deal of interest in our approach to clock tree synthesis and optimization," said Sandeep Srinivasan, founder and CEO of Synchronous Design Automation. "We view the combination with CLK Design Automation as an excellent opportunity to accelerate our entry into the market and quickly gain a much bigger presence. From the designers' perspective, it brings together the latest generation of critical timing closure technologies, which is still the number one challenge they face today." The CLK Amber[TM] Analyzer is currently in production on 45-nm chip designs. The Synchronous DA tools are now in qualification at leading semiconductor companies for both clock tree synthesis and post place-and-route optimization.
